Time to drink up. The fruit is still present, but the acidity has dropped - one can either interpret this as fully integrated tannins, which is true, or that it has entered into a plateau after which it will go downhill.
Darker fruit, darker color, and a slightly sous bois nose in sync - very good match with a lightly seasoned meat dish.
Rated +1 on a scale of -1 to +3.

An enjoyable 2010 Bourgogne that is in the latter stages of maturity. The red fruit has taken on a slightly baked characteristic on this stage, but a floral component still manages to linger in the background. A tasty wine for the money that hit the spot during a quick dinner at home.

Nice village Pinot from Forey, this is drinking well and ready to go, can't see it getting any better. Hints of raspberry and strawberry on palate, a bit acidic - went well with some swordfish with linguini in a red sauce.
Just finished my last bottle and it was terrific, as good a Pinot as I have had lately regardless of price.

Nose shows very nice and gently lean perfume of dark cherries, mint and a hint of barnyard
Overwhelming acid! Flavours are dominated by lean forest berries and dark not too ripe cherries; plenty of smoke as well, some refreshing mint and extreme tongue feelings (acid - very snappy). I think this one will be something to enjoy in a couple of years. There is certainly enough substance and acid. Be good to your stomach and don't try this one in the next months (few years). I liked it!

Simple, solid, fully developed.
